Not really. It doesn't cost money to check tire pressure. All you need is a 75 cent gauge. Testing water is expensive and tests are consumable....
aiptasias are anemones, and they can move.
Woah crazy story Curt. That is one mean looking crab too.
[IMG] Looks like its time to trim again. I think I will be doing this every two weeks.
Maybe I have a pistol then. How long does it take for them to get to any reasonable size? It would have been in the tank since Jan 24th 2009
A mantis wouldn't have a problem widening the rock. I watched my wennerae spend about 30 minutes opening up a crevice to get a tiny hitch hiker...
I suppose it isn't entirely impossible it just seems unlikely to me. The only rock I have that wasn't dry was my N. wennerae's main den. He spent...
It has to be an aragonite based sand otherwise it will bind with an element in the salt water (calcium I believe) and turn rock hard. If you take...
Hrm. Interesting. I will be more observant of the shells my crabs are wearing and see if the popping coincides with shell swapping. Thanks for...

I've never heard of it before, but it looks like snake oil to me.
Definitely can't be a pistol shrimp although the sound is what I would imagine a pistol shrimp to sound like. All the rock was dry except for a...
There is an extremely loud popping noise coming from my tank. I know I don't have a mantis or pistol shrimp because my mantis died, so unless...
Great pictures RM. Makes me really miss Mallory.
IMO it would depend on the look you are going for. If you are going for a barrier reef or something it would not look natural, but it wouldn't look...
I have my mangrove in my mantis tank in the DT, I just have it mounted so the roots are above the sand. When the roots grow down far enough to touch...
Well they definitely aren't neon green more of a hunter green. I tried to take a picture... as you can see I don't have KC's photo taking ability...
I got my ugly brown palys today. I think you might have sent the wrong ones though, these ones have a little green to them.
Ok talked to the guy again to today to elaborate. He said the surface of the skrapr was so smooth bacteria could be rinsed off.
